Are you superstitious?
What kind of superstitious behaviors do you or people you know believe in?
If someone offered you a monkey’s paw and claimed that it had power to grant three wishes, would you use it? Yes? No? Why?
If yes, what would you ask for?
I'm not a superstitious person, and I can prove it since my pet is a black cat !!!
I really don't believe in crossing fingers or touching wood, and I have no problem with walking under a ladder.
Nevertheless, some members of my family are indeed superstitious.
My grandmother firmly believes that the seventh son of a family (no daughters in between) is doomed to turn into a werewolf.
Apparently, the only cure is that the president of the country must become the godson of the 7th son.
She also believes that all women must wear pink underwear in New Year’s Eve, for them to have a prosperous year.
My brother and his friends believe that a person known as having bad luck can't be named, if that happens then the unlucky person transfers their bad vibe to the rest.
So, if anyone dare to mention its name, they grab their testicles.
It seems that genitals grabbing avert the negative energies.
If someone ever offers me a monkey’s paw and tells me that it had power to grant three wishes, I would definitely take it.
I could not resist the temptation.
But then choosing three wishes, and only THREE.... uff… I would probably spend the rest of my life trying to choose.
I can think of a million things to ask, and yet not one worth it.
I believe it would end up being a problem and not a solution, it would consume my life... and that would definitely be BAD LUCK!
